Review: Westcott Safety Ceramic Box Cutter (Retractable Blade) - My Experience I mainly use this box cutter for opening packages and cutting cardboard. It’s lightweight, easy to grip, and the ceramic blade feels safer than traditional metal blades, especially for quick household use. The blade retracts smoothly and cuts cleanly through tape and boxes without snagging. I appreciate not worrying as much about rust or accidental injuries. --- What I Liked Lightweight and comfortable to hold Ceramic blade feels safer and stays sharp Easy blade retraction Works well for everyday package opening --- Downsides (Common Feedback Addressed) Not meant for heavy‑duty cutting jobs Replacement blades aren’t as common as metal ones Handle is functional but basic Review: Perfect alternative to traditional box opener - These things are just perfect. I have one in every room or I might open a delivery. They are not sharp enough to cause you to bleed but they are sharp enough to cut through the tape on nearly any box. I have sent a few of these two family. The only thing I wish that could be improved would be the addition of a locking option. This works by pressing a lever forward to keep the blade out and sometimes it's difficult because of my arthritis. All in all I highly recommend these over a traditional box opener and definitely at this price. ## Features - Westcott Ceramic Safety Cutter: This full-size safety cutter is designed to cut through the largest of boxes and allows you to open boxes with ease - Retractable Blade: This safety cutter comes equipped with a retractable blade that automatically retracts - Versatile: Designed with your convenience in mind, this safety cutter is perfect for both at-home and in-office use - Safe and Easy Blade Changes: This retractable box cutter features a unique design that makes swapping out blades safe and easy - Premium Quality: Westcott SafeEdge ceramic blades are safer and longer lasting than traditional steel blades ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B019O2UBE4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,337 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #32 in Utility Knives | | Blade Material | Ceramic | | Brand | Westcott | | Brand Name | Westcott | | Color | Green | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,921 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00073577164758 | | Handle Material | Plastic | | Handle Type | Manual-Retractable | | Included Components | 1 safety cutter in retail packaging | | Item Length | 3.5 inches | | Item Type Name | Ceramic Blades | | Item Weight | 4.54 g | | Manufacturer | ACME United Corporation | | Manufacturer Part Number | 16475 | | Material | Ceramic | | Material Type | Ceramic | | Model Number | 16475 | | Product Style | Retractable | | UPC | 073577164758 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Blade Material:** Ceramic - **Brand:** Westcott - **Color:** Green - **Handle Material:** Plastic - **Item Length:** 3.5 inches - **Item Weight:** 4.54 g - **Manufacturer:** ACME United Corporation - **Material:** Ceramic - **Style:** Retractable - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![Westcott Ceramic Safety Cutter Utility Knife - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZVroNYYXL.jpg) ![Westcott Ceramic Safety Cutter Utility Knife - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YyDMjTaIL.jpg) ![Westcott Ceramic Safety Cutter Utility Knife - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81QapZLL8AL.jpg) ![Westcott Ceramic Safety Cutter Utility Knife - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81QarZoh8jL.jpg) ![Westcott Ceramic Safety Cutter Utility Knife - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wZAUjR40L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I bought this at walmart, but how do you lock the blade in the out position? (it's a nuisance to use while always having to push the spring forward.)** A: This is a safety feature. Slice has a similar model (10515), also available on Amazon, that does not retract and that model also has a locking feature. **Q: Will this cut fabric?** A: I haven't tried, but it probably would. Not as precise as scissors, but it's pretty sharp. **Q: How do you "lock" the blade in the OUT position?** A: It does not lock, but there is a little recessed push tab on opposite side of the logo that prevents the blade slider and blade from retracting if you apply pressure to the push tab when the blade is fully extended. However, it may just be easier to hold the blade slider to the desired position when operating. The push tab is a little to small for my fingers to effectively operate. **Q: What size of slice blades do I get for replacement in this knife?** A: I'm ordering the knife, but will hold off on the extra blades, as HarleyGirl2002 says the [10404/10408] blades will not fit. The correct replacement blade appears to be Westcott 16510 (https://www.amazon.com/Westcott-Safety-Ceramic-Replacement-16510/dp/B019O2UE8M/), but "currently unavailable". The Westcott 16510 blades have 2 notches, and the image of the 16510 package back confirms, "They will work with all Westcott ceramic tools (16473, 16474, 16475)." In comparison, the Slice 10404 and 10408 blades have only one notch. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Westcott Safety Ceramic Box Cutter (Retractable Blade) *by M***M on May 10, 2026* My Experience I mainly use this box cutter for opening packages and cutting cardboard.

This has been my favorite utility knife for a while now. Unfortunately, I keep misplacing them at work because I’d forget to bring it along with me every time I get moved to another department. At least it doesn’t cost more than $5 to replace. Still, wish I didn’t lose them before their lifespan was up. Pretty sure someone is happily using my lost ones. These are only good for boxes and don’t work too well if you don’t have a knife for shrink wrap with you. I like that it is very light. Speaking of, I think I left my knife somewhere out there again. Gotta reorder 😑😩 Was thinking of uploading a pic but I got nothing. ## Frequently Bought Together - Westcott Box Cutter Safety Ceramic Utility Knife (16475) - Westcott Ceramic Replacement Blades 3-Pack - Westcott 17519 Full-Size Ceramic Blade Box Cutter, Retractable Utility Knife --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/37063231-westcott-ceramic-safety-cutter-utility-knife](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/37063231-westcott-ceramic-safety-cutter-utility-knife) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
